Hello, faithful followers. Happy Sunday! 🙏 I had a couple of weeks off and then back in the hospital again. The family, we thought we had worked on beating this infection, In and out of the hospital with all its mixed emotions. The mixed experiences with nurses. Some great nurses and some bad with the staff. My privacy, pride and modesty go ahead and throw out the window. 🪟

But here we are, as the infectious disease team came in from the recent MRI results, holding their heads down; yet, you hope they have some kind of positive news . Wish it was some joyful news. But alas, they told me yes, the culture still showed the pseudomanas was still growing in the muscle and soft tissue and now the MRI has shpwed it's expanded into the bone. I was told it wouldn't be a 10 day oral antibiotic and light wound dressing for treatmentrhis timeß. This would be six weeks of antibiotics around the clock via my chemo port. No wait, now it has changed to ordering a picc line in my arm. 🤔

After I wiped away the tears, I thought what about plans to lightly work again and par down my bills as well as condense storage that has had to just sit there and wait again. Feels like my stuff is all I have to represent my life. Where this cancer and its remnants has just taken over my life and realize everything just has to stop again. Like my mentor said-you can't be running around doing all this stuff. You need to focus on healing. Focus on getting rid of this infection or nothing will matter. 😒

So, here I lie again being told I have to be introduced to another device-a picc line in my arm. I feel like Wolverine in X-Men where they insert his claw in his arm. I'll have to receive antibiotics twenty four hours for six weeks. My family ans friends want me to stay home and not work for several weeks. Tough with didability not covering all the bills. 🏦

And, in this plan of putting light work aside while I focus on healing, I ironically want to work and have to hang that up for now. And having to pull out the budget, the one glaring piece was clear. If I could just get rid of this one piece in the budget, disability could cover the rest. 🤑

I have been speechless on the generosity that has come in so far paying for travel, expenses, bills..the unexpected and more....🤎
In going through this journey I have the biggest ask or at least help me chip away at it in the budget. If I could get rid of my car payment, the rest would fall in place. I wouldn't have to worry about not being able to get to a doctor's appointment or car repossession. If I can raise $9,954, I could focus on healing and not stressing about bills. The car payment is so high at $674 a month.

Again, so grateful for my family. So grateful for my friends. Thank you for all who have come to visit at the hospital. Thank you for all the donations that have come through. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👧

If you are able to donate thank you so incredibly much. If not, share the story, the life you may save may be your own. 🥰

Looks like May is still ringing in a joyful, hopeful Spring. 🌺 I'm looking out my hospital window at a bright, cheerful day. I would love to be outside partaking in it. 🌞

So, we were gearing up to go to a couple of places to check out clinical trials and finally travel to MD Anderson for a creme de la creme 🏰 opinion from one of the super cancer centers. One more piece of the puzzle.🧩 We cut back on some treatment, like immunotherapy, for travel as well as in case we needed a clean out period. 🤔

Then this excruciating pain came on last month, the month of my birthday. Traveled in and out of a couple of emergency rooms to finally end up at UAB downtown. 🏨 I had a small hole that grew in a few days on the right side of my neck and after being cultured, sounded like something from the movie 'Outbreak'. 🐒 I have a serious infection of pseudomanas and has caused great pain within the wound and referred pain in my shoulder, neck, ear, head and parts of face. With parts of the face spasming, nerves and muscle intermittently. 😫

And then along comes a more common outside skin bacteria we all have in common. Of course all this cancer treatment and having cancer 🎗 made me susceptible. I was finally ready to go and now we have been in the hospital a week and a half and counting. I miss home. I miss my cats. Lol. I miss having a little freedom. 🏃‍♀️Was able to have a birthday 🎉 celebration with family, but celebrated Mother's Day 🎀 in this square hospital room. My mom coming up to see me. My dad here the rest of the time. Hope you all moms and fubaby moms had a blast! 🐱🐶

Of course bills for me and family don't stop. 🤑 i know they don't stop for any of us. We are grateful for every cent that comes through my GoFundMe. We can't thank you enough. I know how tough times are and have been for all of us. 🤎

Hope to post amazing photos and updates soon. 🦋 If you are able to donate that is amazing. Every dollar makes a difference. If not, just share the story. Early detection is crucial. The life you save may be your own. 😒

Hi, Facebook world. 🌍 Star light, star bright. First relief I see tonight. Wish I may, wish I might. Hope to get out of bed before tonight...Lol.

Thanks for all the birthday wishes. It sure does help. Wish I could say I'm put painting the town red. But still working through this pain. 😒 Hopefully kick this soon. 🏃

We are getting closer to the donation goal! Even $5, heck even $1 counts. Wishing you well. Thanks again. 🤎

Hi, world. 🌍 It's a special month this month.

Guess what? Yes, on the one hand it's a special month. It's my birthday month! Next Thursday is my birthday. 🎁 I can smell a cake this year. 🍰 Just won't be able to eat it. On the other hand it has been a tough month.

I have been in a lot of pain, fatigue, financial stress and pulling my hair out for the less than stellar treatment at UAB. There is so much they don't know, which is frustrating. Been in and out of appointments most of the month. My dad always my chauffeur. Sometimes we're at the clinics and hospitals six plus hours. 😳

Dealing with a resistant infection and on treatment. It has created a pocket of fluid that is pushing my right ear out of place causing pain and an uneven appearance. The practitioners are trying to control the pain, but sometimes not much touches this pain. 😵 Needless to say have been sleeping from the fatigue of treatment, the infection and pain. Have not going many places. Thus social butterfly has become a timid wallflower. 🥀

Still pushing for a clinical trial. This seems to be taking longer than expected; so, still on harsh chemo to hopefully control the cancer while searching. It's constant chasing with this cancer and its many side gifts, like infections; sounds that won't heal; unable to eat by mouth and so much more. I hope this all will improve. 🙏 I was lucky when I didn't know I was...

I will say this time last year I was being told maybe I had a year ro a year and a half. Well, May will be a year. These practitioners don't determine my lifeline! 😝

All this has added a financial burden. My whole family is feeling it. The rising costs still with travel, my special food foe feeding tube, medications and more. There is only so much assistance out there and my disability check hardly begins to cover it all. 🤑

Still working on raising funds to get to a hopeful and perhaps miracle trial and added expenses now. If you are able to donate wonderful. Thanks in advance. If not, share the story. The life you save may be your own. 🤎

Star light, star bright... Just driving home from an errand at night a couple of nights ago. Just an ordinary night. Then low and behold I caught out of the corner of my eye a shooting star! I hadn't seen one in a while. Never ceases to amaze me. I slowly down turning into the neighborhood and take in the magic moment. Of course I stopped and closed my eyes and made a wish. I just know it will come true! ✨ I know there's a science behind it.️ But what have you wished upon a star?
